Chapter 48: Inspiration from the Takeda case, different paths to the same destination (Please subscribe! Please vote!) "Robbing a bank?" Xiaolin said word by word. "Rob a bank?" Noda was shocked. Isn't this the entrepreneurial project he was planning? Then he repeated in confusion, "Rob a bank?" How can robbing a bank be foolproof? Even if they planned to take action at the time when Ichiro Takeda was just captured, it would only slightly increase the success rate and the risk was still very high. How can Xiaolin guarantee that everything will be foolproof? He asked the question. "Yes, normally robbing a bank is very risky." Xiao Lin nodded, with an intriguing smile on his face, "But what if the branch manager, deputy branch manager, and senior management of this bank all cooperate?" Many people in Japan call a bank branch a "branch store" and the branch president a "branch store manager". "This... How is this possible!" Noda subconsciously denied this statement, thinking that Kobayashi was simply talking nonsense. "How could those elites take the risk of doing such a thing? If they were caught, they would lose their jobs and go to jail. Besides, even if someone wanted to do it, not all the senior executives would cooperate."

Being able to work in a bank is considered to be one of the better-off ordinary people, and a branch's senior management is even more of a successful person. In the current economic downturn, how important is a stable job with a good salary? And these people are not that short of money. Only a madman would do such a thing as collective embezzlement. "Haha, Noda-kun, you are right, but what if it is because they don't do this that they lose their jobs and go to jail?" Kobayashi asked with a smile. Noda was completely confused. He put down his glass and sat up straight. "What's going on?" He felt his scalp was itchy and he was about to grow a brain. Well, it could also be a tumor. "If anyone else had asked, I certainly wouldn't have told them the truth, but I'll tell you everything I know, Noda-kun." Kobayashi also put down his glass, his face becoming serious. "After all, my trust in Noda-kun has never wavered, otherwise I wouldn't have asked you to cooperate with me." "Amaterasu! I swear that I will never reveal a single word that Kobayashi-kun said to me!" Noda raised his hand and promised solemnly. It can be seen that the friendship between the two is really deep. After all, it is one of the four irons of life. "This is actually related to the current economic downturn in Japan." Xiao Lin sighed and said, "Many banks have good data on paper, but in reality they are in a state of prosperity. Beituo Bank is now a giant with a market value of nearly 100 billion US dollars, but due to various factors, many branches have serious bad debts..." "Kobayashi-kun, you..." Noda was shocked. Has the cellmate who used to only know how to curse become so sophisticated now? Is this something people like them should understand? "Ahem!" Xiao Lin interrupted him awkwardly and explained, "I heard it from others." Noda breathed a sigh of relief, and I felt relieved. After all, my own failure is painful, but my friend's success is even more painful! Now I find that my friend is just like me, which feels great. "Our target is the Tokyo Shinjuku branch of the Hokuto Bank." Kobayashi knocked on the table, poured himself a glass of wine and drank it all. "The head of the business department of this branch is my relative. He knows that I have been in jail for robbing a money-armored vehicle. He has experience and connections in this area, so he wanted to cooperate with me." "According to him, this was inspired by Takeda Ichiro's robbery of the Osaka branch of the Nagashin Bank. Because of the economic downturn, the head office is about to conduct a major inventory of all branches, and their branch has huge problems and can't make up for the holes at all." "As for how the hole was caused, there are many factors, but I guess internal corruption is definitely one of them. It's just that the economy was good before, which covered up these problems, but now the lid can't be covered anymore."

"If they are found out, all of them, from the branch manager to the section chief, will lose their jobs and be taken to court, so they thought of finding a group of people to rob the branch and then take the opportunity to settle the accounts." Noda was stunned and amazed by her beauty. Holy shit! Is this even possible? It turns out that these scoundrels are the worst! But then he became excited again, because if it was really like what Kobayashi said, then they could really carry out a foolproof robbery. Noda asked the most concerned question, "We rob the money, and they settle the accounts?" "Of course not." Xiao Lin shook his head and stretched out his two hands to gesture, "The money stolen should be split 30% to 70%." Those guys in the bank are all greedy for money. They have taken risks, so how could they just settle the accounts without sharing the money? "Why is it only 70%?" Noda was dissatisfied. Xiao Lin rolled his eyes and said, "Noda-kun, 70% belongs to others, and we can only take 30%." "What!" Noda exploded instantly, but realizing that the private room was not well soundproofed, he quickly suppressed his voice and said through gritted teeth, "Aren't they too greedy? Even with their cooperation, the robbery process itself is risky, and we were wanted afterwards. And they only took 30%?" "They have more people, so they can score points. And as long as they grab enough, 30% is not a small amount. The key is that we have the cooperation of internal personnel, so the success rate is high!" Xiao Lin tried his best to persuade his roommate, and then smiled meaningfully, "Besides, the money is in our hands. In the end, how much is stolen is up to us, right?" "Hahahahahaha, Xiaolin-kun, you are still so cunning! Very cunning!" "Noda-kun, come on, let's toast to our reunion, to our soon-to-be successful and brilliant careers, to our friendship, to our wealth, please!" "Kobayashi-kun, please!" .............................. Tonight might be a good night for a party. On the other side, Tanaka Norifumi also had an appointment to drink at a pub. The people he had arranged to meet were the two colleagues who had stabbed Aoyama Hidenobu with him. Originally, the three of them had a good relationship when they worked under Aoyama Hidenobu, but after they stabbed their old boss together, their relationship became distant. Although they were still in the same department, they deliberately distanced themselves from each other. This was their first gathering after betraying Aoyama Hidenobu. The three of them drank silently without saying a word, but they all knew what the other was thinking. Finally, Tanaka Norifumi, who didn't want his wife to cheat on him, broke the silence. He put down his glass heavily with a bang, and his eyes moved between the two men's faces, "Are you really just here to drink? That guy is coming back, and he will never let us go! Do you really think that it was an accident that Inspector Sato was shot dead by him?" "That guy..." A young man, about 30 years old, with a shaved head, covered his face helplessly, "Who would have thought that he would come back?" "This is God's punishment for us. There is nothing we can do except wait." Another young man in his twenties with a middle-parted hair sighed. "That's enough! Are you two just going to give up like that?" Tanaka Norifumi slammed the table and stood up, then reached out and grabbed the collars of the two men and shouted, "Yamamoto Yoh, Nakatani Tsukasa, cheer up! Are you scared before he comes back? We will win!" "Win? How can I win?" Yamamoto Yoh, who had a 3:7 haircut, shook off Tanaka Norifumi's hand, grabbed his hair and yelled, "I don't see any hope of winning at all!" In Japan, hierarchy is extremely serious. This is true in the workplace and even more so in the officialdom. Moreover, they have no backing, so it would be very easy for Aoyama Hidenobu, their immediate superior, to deal with them. "Without Inspector Sato, we are just fish on the chopping board for Aoyama Hidenobu." Nakatani Tsukasa couldn't muster any fighting spirit at all, and instead persuaded Tanaka Norifumi, "Give up, Tanaka-kun." "No! I will never give up!" Tanaka Norifumi was determined to fight to protect his wife. He gritted his teeth and said, "Actually, I have thought of a way." Nakatani Tsukasa and Yamamoto Yoh were stunned, looked at each other, and then looked at Tanaka Norifumi in disbelief.

"Tanaka-kun...what...what did you say?" "You're not kidding, are you?" "Of course not." Tanaka Norifumi was annoyed when he saw the two guys in front of him. After all, if these two were more motivated, he would not want to use this method at all. But now he had to use it. He took a deep breath and said, "Let's do this... this..." The more Yamamoto Yoh and Nakatani Tsukasa's eyes listened, the brighter they became. Their spirits changed after seeing hope. "Tanaka-kun, thank you so much, you are really my benefactor, I will definitely cooperate with this plan!" "me too!" The two quickly expressed their support. "As long as the three of us work together, what will Aoyama Hidenobu have to fear? This time, we will make sure he never gets up again!" Tanaka Norifumi's eyes flashed with viciousness. He poured three glasses of wine, raised one of them and said, "This is a toast to unity, please." "Please!" X2 After drinking it all, Yamamoto Yoh put down his glass, looked at his watch and said, "It's getting late. I have to go home and put the kids to bed. I'll leave you now. Now that I feel at ease, I can finally get a good night's sleep tonight." "I'm leaving too. Thank you, Mr. Tanaka, for hosting me tonight." Nakatani Tsukasa put down his wine glass and said goodbye. Seeing these two guys couldn't wait to leave after he gave the solution, Tanaka Norifumi felt annoyed, but helpless. He could only smile and say, "Please go slowly." Nakatani Tsukasa and Yamamoto Yoh bowed and left. "Mr. Zhongshan, I wish you a good sleep." "You too, Yamamoto-kun." The two said goodbye with a smile at the door of the pub. Get on the bus and drive in the opposite direction. But less than half an hour later, they saw each other's car in front of Aoyama Hidenobu's house. The two looked at each other from a distance through the windshield. The scene suddenly became very awkward. "Ahem...Mr. Nakayama, what a coincidence." The older Yamamoto Yoh was the thicker-skinned one who got out of the car first and walked towards Nakatani Tsukasa. He smiled and made a joke to ease the embarrassment, "It seems that the earth is round after all." "Different paths lead to the same destination, different paths lead to the same destination." Nakatani Si agreed with a dry laugh and closed the car door. Then silence fell between the two again. It was Yamamoto Yoh who spoke first again, "Now that we're here, there's no need to pretend. It looks like we're on the same page, so let's go together." "Hi!" Nakatani Tsukasa responded. The two of them walked towards the gate of Qingshan's house at the same time. (End of this chapter)
